So that Willi the exception of

MANAOCH WCINZNtlMER TALKS.
I Weinzheinier, manager . of
Pioneer Mill, Lahaina, wlio returns
home Unlay, had this to say: ''My
estimate on Pioneer for next -season
18.28,000 tons, as against an out
turn this year of 27,300 tons; hnf "I
should not be surprised (nor disap
pointed) if my figures are bcluw the
mark. For two months we have
not had sufficient rain on Pioneer
plantation, although the fall has
lieen considerable in the mountains;
and I have kept the pumps running
steadily. Iast Friday" I had the
pumps shut dow n; anticipating that
we were in for some heavy rain;
but I found it necessary to start
them up again 01 Saturday.
"The cane, however, looks fine,
it lieing well developed and the
leaves having an exceptionally
liealthy color.
"Planting was considerably de
layed on account of the necessity
of breaking ,in new labor. We
planted 200 acres of new cane last
year and-have just finished putting
in 200 acres more. On account of
the land being so. rough, all of this
planting had to. lie (lone by manual
lalior, it lici'ng impossible to work
with plows. A numlxT of my liest
Japanese left me to return to Japan,
and I had to fiH in with Filipims
to finish this work. The Filipinos
were willing enough, but they were
tdow and did not understand the
work; with the result that we finish
ed only last Friday. However, the
job is now pan and Pioneer .vill run
along finely."
